“If there is anything you take away from reading this, just remember, people may not always remember what you said, but they will always remember how you made them feel,” she says. “Tom made me feel so good in that moment. All too often, we think positively about someone in our head, but we never verbally share that positive thought or comment with the person directly. We just keep it to ourselves. If you admire someone or their actions, let them know! A simple comment can go a long way. What if Tom never approached me and told me those words? I’d probably still be disappointed and embarrassed about that day.”
